Innovative - Tests and Research for Final Animation

Research:

We wanted the ground to look like it was wet and it had been rained on so we googled videos of how to create this look and came across the video below.

Fog-
We also wanted there to be fog to make it more creepy and scary. So we tested how we could create the fog. We used incense sticks and then acetate over the top so we could try and keep the smoke from escaping.

Wall textures(brick)-

We wanted the buildings to look as realistic as we could by having bricks patterns on them so we tested and researched different ways we could do this.

Using a gel did not give use enough of a difference between the cardboard and the brick and it still looked flat, we wanted the brick to be raise slightly.

Paper Mache’ we wanted to use for the wall and the cobble stone street but it took to much time to dry and make and it did not work for the brick as they were too small.

Blobs of Glue looked col and we thought it would work when it was wet but as it dried it became weird and kind of deflated and so we chose not to use it.

Our last test worked the best. We used different types of Styrofoam. Starting with the peanut type this did not look right and would not still to the wall properly, the shape of it was not like a brick. The second type worked the best we could cut it into rectangles and it looked like a brick, so we decided to paint them a similar colour to the building and then still them on after and the gave a nice contrast against a paint piece f cardboard.

Test of the first scene -

We wanted to test whether Bethany's camera would be good enough and capture what we wanted so we tested the beginning scene which we had cut out at the time.

Although we are happy with how the set looks, we noticed that the quality and lighting wasn’t great, so when it comes to filming the final bit, we will borrow out a camera/stand from the university.
